Chapter 008: Persistent Spirit

Wang Mengnan did not chase after Qin Feng, whether out of shock from the investigation results or due to Captain Zhou's orders. Instead, she let Qin Feng leave.

"Sorry, Mr. Qin, Mr. Zhang has some important matters to handle and couldn't come himself, so he sent me. I apologize for keeping you waiting."

Zhu Wenmo stood at the entrance of the criminal investigation team's building and hurriedly greeted Qin Feng, who was walking out with his backpack, with an apologetic tone.

"Thank you."

Qin Feng smiled slightly. He knew that he could get away from Wang Mengnan's pursuit so quickly, mostly because of Zhu Wenmo's intervention.

"We should be the ones to thank you."

Zhu Wenmo shook his head and then said, "Mr. Qin, you probably haven't eaten yet. Would you like to have a meal with me?"

"No, thank you. I have some other matters to attend to." Qin Feng shook his head.

At this point, he was almost certain that although Zhang Baixiong was a wealthy man, he was far from clean. Otherwise, Wang Mengnan wouldn't have insisted on investigating him.

In such a situation, he did not want to have too much interaction with Zhang Baixiong.

"Alright, Mr. Zhang will personally invite you to a dinner another day. We hope you can honor us with your presence."

Seeing Qin Feng's refusal, Zhu Wenmo did not insist. "Where are you heading? Can I give you a ride?"

"No need to be so formal."

Qin Feng smiled slightly and politely declined again.

"Since that's the case, Mr. Qin, please take care of your business. We'll meet again another day." Zhu Wenmo smiled and extended his hand.

"Goodbye."

Qin Feng shook Zhu Wenmo's hand and could clearly feel the calluses on his hand, but they were not on his index finger, rather on the middle of his fingers and the palm. He deduced that Zhu Wenmo often played with cold weapons and was quite skilled.

After the handshake, Zhu Wenmo smiled again and then drove away in a Mercedes S600.

Qin Feng did not linger and walked out of the criminal investigation team's compound. Checking the time, it was almost nine o'clock.

Originally, according to Qin Feng's plan, after arriving in Donghai, he would visit his father's friend to arrange a security job at Donghai University to complete his final mission.

The last mission assigned to Qin Feng by Major General Wang Hucheng was to deliver a death notice and compensation to Chen Meng's family.

But in his heart, the final mission had a different meaning.

On the way to Donghai, he had been thinking about the previous mission. The more he thought about it, the more he believed it was a well-planned trap aimed at wiping out the Dragon Tooth Special Operations Team.

Although the enemy ultimately failed and paid a heavy price, they had obtained a photo of Chen Jing and would surely do everything to investigate her and use her for their purposes.

Therefore, he had to disguise himself and secretly protect Chen Jing until the enemy behind the scenes revealed themselves, then eliminate them to avenge Chen Meng!

This... was his final mission!

Since it was already late, Qin Feng decided to change his plans and visit his father's friend the next day.

Hmm?

Walking alone on the street, although Qin Feng was thinking about his next move, he instinctively remained alert and clearly felt that he was being followed by a car.

The person was driving a Jeep Wrangler, stopping and starting, maintaining a certain distance. They had some experience in tailing, but to Qin Feng, such a method was too basic.

"This woman is really persistent!"

Qin Feng suddenly stopped, pretending to tie his shoelaces. He could clearly see that the person following him was Wang Mengnan, and he couldn't help but feel curious, "What kind of grudge does she have with Zhang Baixiong to be so persistent?"

Shaking his head, Qin Feng got up and continued walking as if nothing had happened.

About ten minutes later, Qin Feng noticed that Wang Mengnan was still following him in her car. After some thought, he headed towards a bar called King.

King Bar was a well-known bar in Donghai, a quasi-top-tier establishment, slightly inferior to Heaven and Earth but better than places like the Forbidden City. The DJs and MCs on the first floor were all hired from abroad at high prices, the DSs were all young models, and the princesses were all professionally trained. Some of the popular ones were also models who had participated in the Sea Sky Feast, making it a true den of iniquity.

It was only nine o'clock, but the parking lot in front of King Bar was already full of various sports cars and luxury vehicles.

It was no exaggeration to say that if the bar's princesses were to model cars, the entrance could host a large car show.

Perhaps because Qin Feng was walking, or perhaps because his attire was too ordinary, he became the focus of the security personnel at the entrance of King Bar.

Ignoring the security personnel's scrutinizing gaze, Qin Feng glanced back and saw Wang Mengnan's car follow him. He shook his head and then walked straight into the bar.

"Welcome!"

As soon as Qin Feng entered, eighteen uniformed long-legged beauties bowed and greeted him.

They wore professional smiles, and when they bent over, their chests were clearly visible, making it hard not to look.

Qin Feng did not linger on the tempting view of the eighteen long-legged beauties' chests but walked straight to the main hall.

"Good evening, sir. Would you like to go to the first-floor hall or a private room upstairs?"

After the eighteen long-legged beauties straightened up, a receptionist in high heels quickly approached, smiling sweetly and asked in a sugary voice.

"First floor."

Qin Feng replied casually. He came to the bar partly to make Wang Mengnan give up on following him and partly to drink a few glasses to numb himself with alcohol.

"Alright, please follow me."

The beautiful receptionist smiled and gestured for him to follow, leading the way with her snake-like waist swaying with each step, evoking all sorts of fantasies.

Soon, under the receptionist's guidance, Qin Feng passed the security check and entered the first-floor slow dance bar. The loud music and the shouts of the black MC were deafening, and the air was filled with a mix of alcohol, smoke, perfume, and sweat. Everywhere, one could see heavily made-up hostesses.

Qin Feng was seated at a booth by the receptionist and ordered a bottle of strong vodka. After taking a sip, he realized it was fake and had to switch to a dozen beers.

"Will that woman follow me in?"

Qin Feng finished a small bottle of beer in one gulp and looked at the entrance, asking himself.

As if in response to Qin Feng's thoughts, the next moment, Wang Mengnan walked into the slow dance bar.

After work, she had changed out of her police uniform into a black T-shirt and black shorts, paired with a pair of sneakers. She exuded a healthy and athletic beauty, but her proud figure, especially her high peaks, and her face that outshone internet celebrities, immediately overshadowed the hostesses.

In a short time, Wang Mengnan attracted many people's attention.

Men's gazes were filled with admiration and desire, while women's gazes were filled with envy and jealousy.

Wang Mengnan seemed to be used to being the center of attention. She ignored the gazes and followed the receptionist while scanning the entire venue.

Hmm?

Soon, Wang Mengnan spotted Qin Feng, her eyes brightening. She found a booth not far from Qin Feng, facing him directly, not worried about being discovered.

Seeing this, Qin Feng raised his glass. When a receptionist approached, he handed her the vodka. "Please take this drink to that beautiful lady."

"Sure, sir."

The receptionist nodded and walked towards Wang Mengnan with the drink.

However—

Soon, the receptionist was intercepted.

Another receptionist arrived first with a bottle of Royal Salute, pointed to a booth, and whispered something to Wang Mengnan.

"I don't care for it."

Wang Mengnan didn't even look at the booth the receptionist pointed to and dismissed her.

Seeing this, the man in the booth frowned and gave up on approaching Wang Mengnan.

Additionally, many men who planned to approach Wang Mengnan temporarily held back, choosing to observe.

The receptionist with the vodka looked at Qin Feng with a questioning gaze, as if saying, "Bro, even Royal Salute was rejected. Do you still want to send it?"

Qin Feng nodded at the receptionist and picked up another beer.

Seeing Qin Feng's nod, the receptionist had no choice but to harden his resolve and walk to Wang Mengnan with the fake vodka, pointing to Qin Feng's location as the previous receptionist had done.

"Is he crazy?"

Seeing this, the men who planned to approach Wang Mengnan looked at Qin Feng with disdain and ridicule.

However—

The next moment, they nearly dropped their jaws in shock!

Because Wang Mengnan, who had rejected the Royal Salute, accepted the vodka sent by Qin Feng.

"What... what's going on?"

For a moment, the men who planned to approach Wang Mengnan were stunned.

There was no answer.

Then, with a look of disbelief, Qin Feng raised the cheapest beer in the place and toasted to Wang Mengnan from a distance.

Wang Mengnan raised her glass and drank it in one gulp, her gaze never leaving Qin Feng.

In the dim light, her gaze was filled with aggression!
